Focusing Questions How does light energy from the environment enter living systems? How is the energy from light converted to chemical potential in organic matter? How is the energy from light converted to chemical potential in organic matter? How do humans in their application of technologies impact photosynthesis?

Main Concepts absorption of light by pigments Krebs cycle light-dependent and independent reactions electron transport systems glycolysis aerobic and anaerobic respiration

Learner Outcomes
General Outcome 1 Students will relate photosynthesis to storage of energy in organic compounds. Specific Outcomes for Knowledge Students will: 20C1.1k explain, in general terms, how energy is absorbed by pigments, transferred through the reduction of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP) to NADPH, and then transferred as chemical potential energy to ATP by chemiosmosis; and describe where in the chloroplast these processes occur 20C1.2k explain, in general terms, how the products of the light-dependent reactions, NADPH and ATP, are used to reduce carbon in the light-independent reactions for the production of glucose; and describe where in the chloroplast these processes occur. Specific Outcomes for Science, Technology and Society (STS) (Science and Technology Emphasis) Students will: 20C1.1sts explain how scientific knowledge may lead to the development of new technologies, and new technologies may lead to or facilitate scientific discovery (ST4) [ICT F24.4, F24.8] analyze the role of photosynthesis as the biological basis of agriculture and forestry 20C1.2sts explain that the appropriateness, risks and benefits of technologies need to be assessed for each potential application from a variety of perspectives, including sustainability (ST7) [ICT F34.1] research and analyze the effects of herbicides on the biochemistry of photosynthesis. Specific Outcomes for Skills (Nature of Science Emphasis) Initiating and Planning Students will:

20C1.1s formulate questions about observed relationships and plan investigations of questions, ideas, problems and issues identify a testable factor that would affect the rate of photosynthesis(IPNS1) predict and hypothesize the effect of changes in carbon dioxide and oxygen c oncentration on photosynthesis(IP NS3) [ICT C64.1]. Performing and Recording Students will: 20C1.2s conduct investigations into relationships between and among observable variables and use a broad range of tools and techniques to gather and record data and information use local histories obtained from Aboriginal Elders to describe the importance of plant productivity to human sustainability (PRSEC2) measure rates of evapotranspiration under various environmental conditions and relate these rates to photosynthetic activity (PRNS2, PRNS3, PRNS4) investigate and integrate, from print and electronic sources, information on the C3 and C4 photosynthetic mechanisms or on the applications of cellular biochemistry in medicine or industry (PR NS1, PRNS4) [ICT C14.1]. Analyzing and Interpreting Students will: 20C1.3s analyze data and apply mathematical and conceptual models to develop and assess possible solutions collect and interpret data from chromatography experiments and calculate refere nce flow (Rf) values (PRNS3, AINS2, AINS3, AINS4) [ICT F14.2] draw an analogy between the storage of energy by photosynthesis and the storage of energy by solar generating systems(AINS6) explain how data supports or refutes the hypothesis on how changes in carbon dioxide and oxygen concentration affect photosynthesis(AINS4) collect and interpret experimental data that demonstrates that plant leaves produce starch in the presence of light (PRNS3, AINS2). Communication and Teamwork Students will: 20C1.4s work collaboratively in addressing problems and apply the skills and conventions of science in communicating information and ideas and in assessing results work cooperatively as a group to investigate, synthesize and present information on the effects of herbicides on the biochemistry of photosynthesis(CTSEC1, CTSEC2, CTSEC3) [ICT C14.4, C74.2].

General Outcome 2 Students will explain the role of cellular respiration in releasing potential energy from organic compounds. Specific Outcomes for Knowledge Students will: 20C2.1k explain, in general terms, how glucose is oxidized during glycolysis and the Krebs cycle to produce reducing power in NADH and FADH; and describe where in the cell these processes occur 20C2.2k explain, in general terms, how chemiosmosis converts the reducing power of NADH and FADH to store chemical potential energy as ATP; and describe where in the mitochondrion these processes occur

20C2.3k distinguish, in general terms, between aerobic and anaerobic respiration and fermentation in plants, animals and yeast 20C2.4k summarize and explain the role of ATP in cellular metabolism; e.g., active transport cytoplasmic streaming phagocytosis biochemical synthesis muscle contraction heat production. Specific Outcomes for Science, Technology and Society (STS) (Social and Environmental Contexts Emphasis) Students will: 20C2.1sts explain that science and technology are developed to meet societal needs and expand human capability (SEC1) [ICT F24.4, F24.8] research applications of cellular biochemistry in health and industry: aerobic and anaerobic fitness methane gas production from organic waste alcohol production bread making yogurt 20C2.2sts explain that science and technology have both intended and unintended consequences for humans and the environment (SEC3) [ICT F34.1] discuss how pollutants such as hydrogen sulfide and cyanide are by-products of industrial processes and explain the specific metabolic effects of these pollutants on aerobic organisms. Specific Outcomes for Skills (Nature of Science Emphasis) Initiating and Planning Students will: 20C2.1s formulate questions about observed relationships and plan investigations of questions, ideas, problems and issues identify factors affecting the rate of cellular respiration (IPNS1) design an experiment to demonstrate that heat is a by-product of cellular respiration (IPNS1, IPNS2, IPNS3, IPNS4) predict and hypothesize the effect of oxic and anoxic conditions on the rate of cellular respiration in unicellular organisms such as yeast and bacteria (IPNS3) [ICT C64.1]. Performing and Recording Students will: 20C2.2s conduct investigations into relationships between and among observable variables and use a broad range of tools and techniques to gather and record data and information use experimental methods to demonstrate, quantitatively, the oxygen consum ption of germinating seeds (PR NS2, PRNS3, PRNS4, PRNS5) measure temperature change over time of germinating and non-germinating seeds (PRNS2, PRNS3, PRNS4, PRNS5) investigate and integrate, from print and electronic sources, information on th e action of metabolic toxins on cellular respiration (PRNS1, PRNS4) [ICT C14.1].

Analyzing and Interpreting Students will: 20C2.3s analyze data and apply mathematical and conceptual models to develop and assess possible solutions evaluate the reliability, accuracy and validity of sources used to collect information on metabolic toxins and cellular respiration (AINS4) [ICT C34.1] interpret data on the oxygen consumption of an animal and relate this to metabolicrate (AINS2, AINS3, AI NS4, AINS6) interpret data that illustrate the effect of oxic and anoxic conditions on cellular respiration (AINS6) [ICT C74.2] relate the Aboriginal metaphor the trees are the lungs of Mother Earth to the complementary role of the carbon and oxygen cycles(AINS6). Communication and Teamwork Students will: 20C2.4s work collaboratively in addressing problems and apply the skills and conventions of science in communicating information and ideas and in assessing results create a concept map or flow chart to illustrate how the carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms in glucose are ultimately released as carbon dioxide and water work cooperatively to research and investigate cellular respiration in oxic and anoxic conditions and metabolic toxins (CTSEC1) [ICT C14.1].
